Ibiza as a Foodie Destination
People usually associate Ibiza only with parties and summer, but the island offers so much more. Visiting during the off-season has plenty of advantages—from the peaceful beaches and coves that are usually crowded, to the local gastronomy that deserves your full attention. Ibiza is an emerging food destination, now boasting three Michelin stars.
So, where can you eat in Ibiza during the off-season? Here are the best restaurants to savor the island in autumn and winter.
1. Blavós:
Great food, good vibes, and spectacular views. Located at the end of the Figueretas promenade, right by the sea, it’s the perfect place for breakfast, lunch, or dinner—whether on its terrace or inside its bright, airy space. From grilled meats and fish (Josper) to flavorful rice dishes and paellas, plus fresh, tasty salads.
2. El Náutico Ibiza:
A place for breakfast, lunch, or dinner with sea views overlooking the port and Dalt Vila—what more could you want?
Its food offering stands out for its honest cuisine and focus on local, seasonal produce. Try their grilled or baked catch of the day with seasonal vegetables, or one of their standout rice dishes.
3. Hostal La Torre:
Located in a natural, intimate, and iconic corner of the island—Cap Negret, San Antonio. It’s a magical spot to dine while enjoying one of the most beautiful sunsets in the world. They serve breakfast, lunch, and dinner. We recommend trying the wild sea bass with fennel and orange salad, the burrata with pistachio pesto, or their homemade burger with Scamorza cheese and caramelized onions.
4. S’Espartar:
Open for 25 years, this is one of the go-to spots for one of Ibiza’s most iconic dishes: bullit de peix. Many say it’s the best on the island—perhaps because they source their fish directly from their own boats in San Antonio.
5. Es Boldadó:
Another top choice for rice dishes, seafood, and fresh fish. With an extra bonus: its jaw-dropping views of Es Vedrà. Perched on a cliff above Cala d’Hort beach, standout dishes include salmorra (a traditional Ibizan dish) and, of course, bullit de peix.
6. Can Pujol:
A true benchmark for Ibizan cuisine in San Antonio. Specializing in fresh fish and seafood, their star dish is bullit de peix with arroz a banda. Other local specialties include sautéed espardenyes, Ibizan prawns, oysters, carril clams, and whisky-lobster. The perfect place to enjoy authentic local cuisine with spectacular views over San Antonio Bay.
7. Restaurant Sa Caleta:
Traditional seaside cuisine in a charming coastal corner framed by ochre clay and blue sea. The menu has remained unchanged since day one, built on the best ingredients and lots of love. Highlights include grouper, John Dory, dentex, amberjack, red prawns, lobster, espardenyes, Ibizan skate—and more!
8. Bar Costa:
If you’re looking for a simple yet spectacular sandwich, Bar Costa offers the best on the island. Located in Santa Gertrudis, it’s famous for its cured meats served as tapas or in rustic sandwiches on pan llonget, topped with tomato and olive oil. Simple and delicious—it doesn’t get better than this.
